    The J. Bally Millésime 1998 is a refined Martinican agricole rum distilled from sugarcane juice, featuring a 43% ABV.

On the palate, it presents a balanced blend of woody, dried fruit, and dry flavors, with a round and roasted character.

    "Holz, röstig, getrocknete Früchte, leicht säuerlich und pflanzlich. Ausgewogen. Im Mund etwas würziger und holziger. Der Rum wärmt ordentlich, bevor sich ein unspektakulärer Abgang anschließt. Ein etwas besserer Standard Agricole."

    "Not the kind of agricole that I favor. Lots of nuts and wood, some dried fruits as well."
